I recommend checking out the stories with her protecting the orphans in Robinson Park and her appearances in the Harley Quinn ongoing

Those are all pretty neat

Also she once totally killed a guy with a salad

You've got to admit that's so ridiculous that its

nooooooooooooo!!! not that awful story with Hush!!!

"Ivy, be my lover".
"No, I must save the kids by becoming human again, bruce wayne, I'm sure you're batman, but actually you're not, help me becoming human again"
"Ivy, you're such a wonderful person. I, Bruce Wayne, will help you. Hush, stay away from Ivy, it is me she loves".
"Bruce, I hate you, and now I have one more reason to destroy your legacy: you're trying to take away my girl from me".
"But I'm not your girl, I'm a plant and now I'm human. Oh noooes, what a mistake, I should become a plant again".
"Bruce she died because of you, I really hate you for good now".

A.J. Lieberman tried so hard to make Hurt something special, and yet, all he managed to do is make him even more pathetic. This story was nothing more than a threesome without the sex.

I don't care for Ivy either, I think she's just a bland villainess. At least she was fun when she was created and only wanted to seduce Batsy.

Just read Dectective #13.....Why does Batman use Alfred's real name when he's talking to him while in the field??

On page 4 he's standing over some guys he just pummeled and talking to "Alfred".....using his name. What if some of the thugs are playing possum? Now granted...I know many will say "Alfred who?" ...there lots of Alfreds. But on the outside chance that someone is watching him using a boom mic or other tech that picks up sound at a distance, Souldnt he use a code name like Shadow one or what ever???

Finally got around to reading me copy of Detective 14 today and I gotta say it's one of the first times I've thoroughly enjoyed a Poison Ivy story. Had no idea she was in Birds of Prey either. Kinda makes me wanna go pick up some issues of it

Birds of Prey is really neat I definitely recommend checking that series out

I dug Detective Comics too

Looking forward to seeing what happens with Ivy and Clayface next issue

With Bruce Wayne publicly funding Batman, even if one of the thugs knows which Alfred Batman is talking to it wont seem strange for Batman to know/work with Alfred

Small spoilers. If this guy is to be believed, then Snyder may be living up to his supposed master piece. Guess we'll find out tomorrow. Here's hoping.

The greatest accomplishment of DOTF thus far is that it expands upon a dynamic between the Joker and Batman that exists in every incarnation of this relationship, but has never really been fleshed out. The Joker is Batman's opposite number. Whereas one wears a scowl to bring security to the world, the other dons a grin to spread terror. The irony of this relationship is that though they frustrate each other's efforts, they ultimately need each other to give those efforts meaning. A city of purse snatchings and muggings doesn't need a Batman, just a semi-competent police force. Similarly, a Joker who rails against weak ideals and flimsy morals lacks a substrate to bring significance to his acts. It is only when these two actors clash that they can create something greater than the sum of its parts. A sharp knife needs a strong whetstone.
